- KKKelly1 day ago5.0Helpful, courteous staff. Very busy time I went in apparently (around 930pm) and there were actually humans on the tills!!!!
- NBNicole BartlettNov 15, 20251.0Currently at the Uptown save on where I went to do my grocery shopping today, in the dairy aisle is mold. You can see it you can smell it. Very potent smell. Then the freezer aisle has melted things in it and they're refreezing it. Even the cashier said he has received items that should have been frozen. Then 1 of the freezer shelves is cracked and had a clear piece that was sharp and cut my finger. The manager got me a band aid. Then said she would investigate the mold smell..she said it was from people spilling under the shelving . However the mold is visible on the shelf. Then she said freezer defrost and refreeze every 6 hours to prevent freezer burn. So how many times has the freezer items been defrosted and refrozen ? For my noticing I was given 2 free juices since thats where my finger got cut. If you go to this location today be ware of dairy and freezer section. The owner of the store asked me to contact them about the issue today which I just did and I was told it would be escalated immediately to higher management and that I would get a call back with an explanation to the freezer situation and such and why the store was in such distress. Despite it being minor by visual. Its rather deep and the skin keeps pulling back but its to thick to just remove. And cooking , washing hands/dishes ect sting. I was out of band aids so had to buy more and polysporn and antiseptic. (I havent cut myself in awhile ) so that was $35 extra I had to spend because of a damaged shelf that was clear and sharpe. Very irritating. Nov 19 2025 update. upon request of owner i called but only spoke directly with a customer care agent. Never recieved a call or email back.
- JMJordyn MaherOct 16, 20255.0Been in here a few times while in the area and it's one of the best Save On locations I've been in and I can't really explain it other than the vibe. Friendly employees too. I'd definitely keep coming in here again. :)

- SDSean DyerSep 27, 20252.0Seems like the cashiers here don’t want to bag your groceries anymore. Under staffed, slow, and inefficient. Management needs to sort that out. Additionally, can’t scan my rewards card at my phone at the self checkout, so am forced to go through a cashier - annoying. Long time save-on shopper but will be avoiding the location.
